Partnership is at the heart of becoming a Habitat Homeowner. Selected
Families enter into a long term relationship with Habitat for Humanity.
Partner families
are expected to continue working with Habitat
throughout the building process and act as ambassadors of Habitat's
programs even after construction is complete.
Following are the key factors in qualifying to become a Habitat Partner
Family:
Housing
Need: Housing need is evaluated based on structural issues, living
space, safety, stability, and rent burden.
Ability to Pay: A total household income of approximately
$25,000 to $39,490 annual income for a family of four combined with
the ability to fulfill your mortgage obligation make up a family’s
ability to pay.
Willingness to Partner: Timeliness of your application
and supporting documents, understanding of our sweat equity requirements,
the willingness to contribute 250 hours per adult applicant to the
construction of your home, and eagerness to fulfill these requirements
are all considered in gauging a family’s
willingness to partner.
